Buy commodities at origin — and pay less.
Commtora connects buyers, suppliers and freight in one deal — so you source at origin and receive below your current landed cost.
From request to delivery — in four steps.
Post your need
Tell us the commodity, volume and destination. Free and without obligation — no account required.
We source at origin
Our desk taps verified producers at source and negotiates on your behalf across the network.
Freight & documents
We arrange logistics, Incoterms and the full paperwork — FOB, CIF or DAP, end to end.
You receive & save
Goods clear and arrive at your port, landed below what you pay today.
Better prices aren’t luck — they’re leverage.
Commtora isn’t a price feed or an exchange. You order the physical goods — we source them at origin and land them below what you pay today.
Direct at origin
You buy straight from vetted producers — not from the chain of traders and agents that each add a margin between the farm and your port.
The power of volume
We pool demand across many buyers and negotiate directly with producers on the combined tonnage — a price a single importer can't reach alone.
One desk, end to end
Sourcing, inspection, freight and customs sit in one hand. Fewer intermediaries, fewer mark-ups, one predictable landed cost.
Commodities you order — not quotes you watch.
Twelve origins, dozens of grades. Real product, inspected and shipped to your port — ask for anything not listed.
